Listed Hill Smith S., $100,000, 1800m
Race summary
Anthony and Sam Freedman have a decision to make after Ain’tnodeeldun (Dundeel {NZ}) scored a big win here.
The short-priced favourite settled well back in the field during the run but showcased his elite turn of foot and stormed home to take out the race by 0.7l, staking his claims for a start in the G1 VRC Derby.
It was a quinella for Dundeel (NZ) as Victoria Quay also finished off well to score second with Passing Phase (Spill The Beans) coming home another 2l back in third.
Pedigree notes
Ain’tnodeeldun is the sixth foal out of Ain’tnofallenstar (Starcraft {NZ}) who herself won two stakes races.
He was sold by Bhima Thoroughbreds for $240,000 to Anthony Freedman Racing and Blue Sky Bloodstock at the Inglis Premier Yearling Sale and his grandam is Listed Let’s Elope S. winner Ain’t Seen Nothin’ (Nothin Leica Dane).
Ain’tnofallenstar has a yearling colt by the late Redoute’s Choice and this year foaled a brother to Ain’tnodeeldun.
